Seahawks' Nick Emmanwori: Iffy to play in season opener
The Seahawks list Emmanwori (ankle) as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Patriots, Curtis Crabtree of Fox 13 Seattle reports.
Emmanwori has been a limited participant in practice this week while he continues to work his way back from surgery on his right ankle, which he underwent in late July. The Seahawks will likely re-evaluate Emmanwori early Wednesday before rendering a decision on his status before the team submits its inactive list approximately 90 minutes prior to the 8:20 p.m. ET opening kickoff. If Emmanwori ends up sitting out the season opener, the Seahawks would be down both of their starting safeties, as Ty Okada (hamstring) has already been ruled out.

Seahawks' Nick Emmanwori: Remains limited Monday
Emmanwori (ankle) again was limited at Monday's practice, but coach Mike Macdonald said he "did the most work he has yet," John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Emmanwori appears to be ramping up his activity level as he closes in on his recovery from surgery on his right ankle in late July. It remains to be seen if he'll gain clearance to play in Wednesday's Week 1 matchup with the Patriots, but Tuesday's practice report may provide clarity on his upcoming availability (or lack thereof).

Seahawks' Nick Emmanwori: Limited Sunday
Emmanwori (ankle) was a limited practice participant Sunday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Emmanwori underwent right ankle surgery just before the start of training camp in late July, and while he passed a physical and was activated from the active/PUP list Aug. 11, his status remains murky just days before a Week 1 matchup with the Patriots. At the beginning of Sunday's session, he was spotted warming up with a helmet at his side, per Corbin K. Smith of SI.com, and Emmanwori eventually mixed into some drills. How Emmanwori fares in practice Monday and Tuesday likely will determine if he's made available for Wednesday's season opener.

Seahawks' Nick Emmanwori: Iffy for Week 1
There is uncertainty about whether Emmanwori (ankle) will be cleared to play against the Patriots on Wednesday, Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune reports.
Emmanwori underwent arthroscopic ankle surgery in July, and although he was removed from the PUP list Aug. 11, it's still unclear whether he'll suit up for Seattle's regular-season opener in a Super Bowl LX rematch. The 2025 second-rounder played a key role on the Seahawks' defense last year, and if he's unable to play, then Julian Neal (leg), Avery Smith and Nehemiah Pritchett would all be in line for an elevated workload against New England.

Seahawks' Nick Emmanwori: Passes physical
Emmanwori (ankle) passed his physical Tuesday and has been taken off the Seahawks' active/PUP list, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.
Emmanwori had surgery ahead of training camp related to a sprained ankle he suffered four days prior to Super Bowl LX, and he has now taken a big step toward returning to the field. It's still not fully clear whether he'll be ready to go by Week 1 of the regular season, however. His status will be worth keeping an eye on as the preseason unfolds.

Seahawks' Nick Emmanwori: Uncertainty about Week 1 status
Seahawks coach Mike Macdonald responded "I don't know" Saturday when asked about Emmanwori's (ankle) potential availability for Week 1 of the regular season, Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune reports.
An earlier report by Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com indicated that Emmanwori would likely be ready to go by the regular-season opener, but there's reason to be at least a little less optimistic about that scenario following Macdonald's comments. Per Bell, Macdonald also confirmed that the surgery Emmanwori underwent recently was tied to the sprained ankle he suffered four days before Super Bowl LX. While the standout defensive back doesn't currently have a definitive timeline to return to the field, Macdonald indicated that Emmanwori isn't dealing with a serious, long-term issue.

Seahawks' Nick Emmanwori: Has surgery on ankle
Emmanwori is expected to be ready for Week 1 after undergoing surgery on his right ankle ahead of training camp, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
It's anticipated that Emmanwori will miss some time during camp as he recovers from the procedure, but at this point, it seems like it won't keep him out of any regular-season game action. Until he can get back onto the practice field, free agent acquisition Noah Igbinoghene could see some work in the secondary with the first team.

Seahawks' Nick Emmanwori: Placed on PUP list
The Seahawks placed Emmanwori (undisclosed) on the active/PUP list Monday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.
Emmanwori was on the field for spring and summer offseason workouts, but he now appears to be dealing with an injury in advance of training camp. Once he's deemed healthy enough to resume practicing, Emmanwori will be eligible to come off the PUP list at any point during training camp. The 2025 second-round pick totaled 81 tackles (56 solo), 2.5 sacks, 11 pass breakups and an interception across 14 regular-season appearances as a rookie.
